Book excerpt: The book that was the basis for the hit film by the same title starring Al Pacino. The killer makes love to women. But only the feel of his knife into a man’s body can satisfy him. The rookie enters the killer’s nightworld as decoy. Becomes the killer’s prey... and then the victim of his own violent, tortured mind. Two men will stalk Manhattan’s shadowed streets, bars, parks, places where men meet men. Both hurting. Both obsessed. Lured closer and closer to each other. Across the line between cop and killer. Into the terror of homicidal compulsion.
Download or read book Cruise of the Lanikai written by Kemp Tolley and published by Naval Institute Press. This book was released on 2014-01-15 with total page 343 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In early December 1941 in the Philippines, a young Navy ensign named Kemp Tolley was given his first ship command, an old 76-foot schooner that had once served as a movie prop in John Ford's "The Hurricane." Crewed mostly by Filipinos who did not speak English and armed with a cannon that had last seen service in the Spanish-American War, the Lanikai was under top-secret presidential orders to sail south into waters where the Japanese fleet was thought to be. Ostensibly the crew was to spy on Japanese naval movements, but to Tolley it was clear that their mission was to create an incident that would provoke war. Events overtook the plan, however, when Pearl Harbor was bombed before the Lanikaicould get underway. When Bataan and Corregidor fell, she was ordered to set sail for Australia and became one of the few U.S. naval vessels to escape the Philippines. In this book Tolley tells the saga of her great adventure during these grim, early days of the war and makes history come alive as he regales the reader with details of the operation and an explanation of President Roosevelt's order. Tolley's description of their escape in Japanese warship-infested waters ranks with the best of sea tales, and few will be able to forget the Lanikai's 4,000-mile, three-month odyssey.
